blanket colour change

[EB Photography]

Hi Damien

I have a green patchwork blanket that I'd like to change the colour of please. I'd like to maybe change it to a blue  (I'm not fussy, just not pink colours). 

I used your method you've addressed in another post but it doesn't completely work in this case due to the patchwork. I used a hue/saturation layer and adjusted the Green slider hue to +80. As you can see, it didn't work on all the areas of the quilt. 

What would you recommend? (I'm thinking you may recommend Channel Mixer). 

Could you please help? 

Thank you

Emma

Well, how about a Hue/Saturation layer at 50% opacity, with "Colorize" checked, and about +220/+70/0?

Thanks for your response Damien however, I'm confused about the numbers. It's probably a dumb questions sorry! Are the numbers within the green slider? But it doesn't go up to +220.

Alternatively, you could try a light blue Solid Color layer on either "Multiply" or "Linear Burn" mode.

Perfect! Thank you. What do you think? Please ignore the masking for now, I just wanted to see what you thought first. This is using the solid colour layer, in soft light mode. 

Would you mind please telling me about those numbers you mentioned earlier for the Hue/Saturation layer?

Thank you.

What?  Just do them!

I'm not sure which colour channel in the hue saturation layer you mean though, sorry!

How much bigger and bolder do I need to make it?

Oh, that's how you get +220, check colorize first!! Got it now thanks heaps! This looks really good don't you think? (Please don't look at the fast and bad masking here).
